Game 64 - Week 8

The big game in the Euro league this week saw Lazio beat Bayern Munich 3-1 to stay top of the table, defeats for Munich, Benfica and Antwerp saw the number of teams tied at the top cut to four.  Lazio have the better goal difference still, PSG are next after a 3-2 home win over PSG, then Basle - 2-1 victors over Mini Mars, then Real Madrid who beat Antwerp 1-0.   Of the top four, only Real Madrid are away from home next turn (at Lazio) so there is perhaps finally an opportunity for the leaders to open up a bit of a gap.

Wins for the leaders in the Prem too, Chelsea with a home win over Derby, who drop down to sixth, and Wolves winning at home to Tottenham 3-0.  Climbing above Derby are Man City, up to third a 4-2 home victory over Bournemouth, Celtic who won 1-0 at home to Rangers, and Arsenal who beat Everton 2-0.

The Super Cup final will be between Lazio and Real Madrid.  Rich Coupland's Lazio beat Chelsea 3-1 in the first semi final, James Teager's Real beat Derby 2-1 in the other.
